| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? But where are the decoders Martin?Other than Meridian gear, which is very very expensive, I know of no end-user decoders.Of course there is G-Format, but there is very little content available in G.Maybe we should start an "Ambisonics Primer for A... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? WHOOPS...I so meant ambisonics, NOT quadraphonic. | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Quadraphonic baby.If that technology EVER gets off the ground, it will be better than stereo. | |
| Recommended amp for Ohm Walsh Super 2's? I also have the new Walsh Super 2's. After reading a lot, I just got tired of listening to my great speakers with such a sh*tty amp, so I jumped on the next good deal I found. Paid less than $500 on Audiogon for a 125 watt Parasound amp and matchi... | |
| What's your favorite audio codec? If I hadn't already ripped 15 GB of music into lossy, I'd take your advice Jc51373! I like your solution. | |
| How to audition used speakers??? What do you think of the newer Klipsch floorstanders? | |
| What's your favorite audio codec? I like this idea a lot but it poses two problems in my mind: you need A LOT of storage on your computer (I just have a mac laptop, I'd have to buy a huge external drive) and you have to spend time putting all of your music into two formats. Do you... | |
| What's your favorite audio codec? Jc51373, I am also a Mac user, so I understand why you would use ALAC. If I went lossless, I would probably go for it too because it's a bitch to deal with the other formats on OSX.The only reason why ALAC is inferior to some other lossless codecs... | |
| What's your favorite audio codec? I have to agree with Osgorth here. I'm not sure I understand what you're saying Jc51373, and I think you may have been mislead. ALAC is not 1:1, it is lossless compression, just like FLAC or Monkey's. (That's why it's called Apple Lossless Audio C... | |
| What's your favorite audio codec? Apple Lossless is cool because it's lossless, but it SUCKS compared with any other lossless format I know of, especially FLAC and Monkey's Audio. Both of these formats compress the file much more than Apple Lossless can. Check them out. | |
| What's your favorite audio codec? Osgorth, I believe that Rockbox supports Monkey's.I should note that I switched back to the iPod OS for three reasons:1. Significantly worse battery life with Rockbox2. Significantly slower performance with Rockbox (this could have had to do with ... | |
| How to audition used speakers??? What do you all think of Magnepans for this application? | |
| Horns vs Ribbons vs Dyanamic Audiokinesis,The single driver dynamic speaker that you mentioned had great imaging, did this happen to be an Ohm speaker? | |
| How to audition used speakers??? Thanks Mcpody, will do! | |
| How to audition used speakers??? Great posts and great points! Honest1, I think you're totally right; I was worried that Spicas wouldn't fare well only being driven by 40 watts. In a dormroom, I think that abuse could be possible. For those of you skeptical about putting ANY syst... |
